this is my contribution to the Ripple blog
Check out the details of this project!
It’s not about the politics or the corporation. It’s about the animals. It’s about not feeling helpless in the face of an overwhelming disaster. We’re illustrators. We don’t lose touch with that kid inside who marvels at the creatures who swim below and fly above the sea. We draw them. We are inspired by them. We need to help them.
The Ripple blog was started on the 45th day of the Deepwater Horizon Catastrophe. The oil spill in the Gulf is now over 50 days old with no sign of stopping. We may be too small as individuals to do some grand gesture- but together our small gestures can be grand.
This week’s Illustration Friday topic is “Ripple” and I ask you to consider creating your work this week as a small 2.5″ x 3.5″ sketchcard.
The subject should pertain somehow to the Gulf – the oil spill – the oceans and the creatures that live in it and around it. The cards can be submitted to ripplesketches@verizon.net as a jpeg along with your links and a few sentences about you (ie: where you live, etc).
These will be made available for a small donation of $10.00 to either The Institute for Marine Mammal Studie (http://www.imms.org/) or The International Bird Rescue Research Center (http://www.ibrrc.org/) I have no affiliation with them. Every penny will go. When the cards sell, We ask for a donation confirmation and you will be asked to sign the back with a thank you. Then mail them to the address you are sent. If we all do small acts together- we can cause a ripple- and it can grow. We can DO SOMETHING. Thank you, thank you for checking this out and thinking about it.” ~ Kelly Light
finally the water color for BZK who just get married and builds customs bikes from old parts.
and he collects elephants figures.

por fin la acuarela para BZK que se acaba de casar y que construye bicis personalizadas con partes viejitas.

it was pretty difficult to keep him in that pose my lack of skills with the pencils is evident, I need to practice more.

fue muy difícil mantenerlo en esa pose. como sea mi falta de habilidad con los lapices es más que evidente, necesito practicar más.
I wish the background color in the front of the card was a bit less faded, but definitely I love the pattern in the back side.

me hubiera gustado que el color de fondo de la parte de enfrente de la tarjeta estubiera menos desvanecido, pero me encanto el patrón de la parte de atras.
